Quack, quack, quack bitches!
They like to get really close to me while I'm smoking, and probably pray for me to throw food to them...
Anyhow, in keeping with the theme of these two crazy ducks, I thought I would share these photos that I took of them... walking away from me... heh... What it made me think about though, is how these birds seem to be very loyal to one another in the mating/breeding sense... basically, what I thought was, that the ducks choose a partner and stay with them...
I was completely wrong about that... check out this excerpt from the Wikipedia article linked as the source for this post:
Mallards form pairs only until the female lays eggs, at which time she is left by the male. The clutch is 8–13 eggs, which are incubated for 27–28 days to hatching with 50–60 days to fledgling. The ducklings are precocial, and can swim and feed themselves on insects as soon as they hatch, although they stay near the female for protection. Young ducklings are not naturally waterproof and rely on the mother to provide waterproofing. Mallards also have rates of male-male sexual activity that are unusually high for birds. In some cases, as many as 19% of pairs in a Mallard population are male-male homosexual.
When they pair off with mating partners, often one or several drakes will end up "left out". This group will sometimes target an isolated female duck — chasing, pestering and pecking at her until she weakens (a phenomenon referred to by researchers as rape flight), at which point each male will take turns copulating with the female. Male Mallards will also occasionally chase other males in the same way. (In one documented case, a male Mallard copulated with another male he was chasing after it had been killed when it flew into a glass window.
Wow, what in the fuck? So according to this information, it is possible for a mallard duck to be one or all of these things:
Needless to say, I was really fucking surprised.
Most of the eNemesis audience will probably tell me to get the fuck lost for this one... but like I said before, if you don't like it, go fuck your self, you trick nasty ho!!!I now present to you... "Ducks" by link:



I know, I know... with sick photography skills like this.. it won't be long before "sexy" has been brought back in full effect!
